“Amazing trip to Kyoto thanks to Koki”
Koki was fantastic. Super accommodating, knowledgeable, flexible and fun. He had wonderful restaurant recommendations, was patient when I wanted to shop and we got to see everything we wanted to see. We could not recommend him enough 10/10. The driver was extra grea,t because we didnt have to rely on public transportation. That was extra but so worth it.

Hi Lynn, I am honored to receive your very kind feedback. We were able to tour around Kyoto efficiently by taxi in a 3 days. On the first day, Kiyomizu-dera temple was a little busy because there were so many people, but on the second day, Ryoanji temple, Golden Pavillion(Kinkakuji), Nijo-jo castle and Nishiki market on the third day, we were able to enjoy them slowly. We were also able to enjoy karaoke in the short time we had in Kyoto. Kyoto is a wonderful city where you can enjoy spring, summer, fall, and winter. Please come again. Next time, if you would like to go somewhere other than Kyoto, please let me know. I look forward to seeing you again soon. Koki

“Amazing Experience!”
I had a great day with Koki. Learning to Ayu fish was a blast. He also took us to see traditional cormorant fishing at night. We even got a better view than some of the people who paid to be out in boats! He made everything go smoothly throughout the whole day. Highly reccomend. This was the highlight of my trip so far.

Hi Joshua, Thank you very much wonderful comment. How did you enjoy the taste of ayu fish from Nagara River? I hope you will stay in Gifu for a week or so next time and enjoy ayu tomozuri fishing. It was a beautiful day and we were able to enjoy the cormorant fishing from the shore. We look forward to seeing you again. Koki
